BINGO PINBALL WAR by Jeff Lawton

#BPW

United and Bally were the only two true US manufacturers of bingo
pinball machines, and in the 1950s they fought an all-out battle
to capture the elusive bingo pinball machine market.

This comparative history details the intriguing story of
mid-century, American industrial and entertainment innovation
that pitted United engineer, Lyndon Durant and Bally's Don Hooker
against each other in a battle royale to produce the best bingo
pinball machine.

Through more than 200 photos and illustrations detailing 60
games, Jeffrey Lawton, premier bingo pinball machine enthusiast,
introduces Durant's United games and the simultaneous, and
sometimes retaliatory, creative efforts employed by Hooker from
1951 to 1957. Lawton's analysis is complete with photos of rare
games and playfields and descriptions of complex bingo pinball
circuitry.
